Trying to see any feelers for my old Powerbook, would like to upgrade but in desperate need for cash. I will consider throwing in a neoprine case and possibly a brand new isight camera. Student in desperate need for cash. Hoping to get $1000 and any other offers may be considered. There are minor scratches, mostly over the dvd drive after recently installing a brand new hard drive 6 months ago, also include Windows edition for student /teacher software. Currently running tiger and have not had any problems with the computer, just school work is requiring me to upgrade. Feel free to email with any offers wdvargas@yahoo.com. Thanks.

Any suggestions on the price. I am not really sure of the market value of this and have bidders here at home and do not want to underprice this or rip someone off. I'm just desperate for the money in order to purchase a new notebook. Pictures available upon request. Thanks.

depending on condition, 800 tops (ebay), 6-650 here. ebay that iSight, and you will have another ~150-200 (again, depends on condition and included mounts). Be sure to list the amount of video ram, if its a high resolution version, bluetooth/ airport. Bare in mind that the PB prices are from when i was trying to sell (maybe 2 months ago?). Good luck on the sale!

The condition is fine when a new hard drive was installed a small gap was left over the DVD drive but there are no functional flaws in the powerbook whatsoever. Will be willing to drop the price down to $750 including the isight and case as well as shipping due to the feedback I have been getting. Don't want to rip anyone off but I am a poor graduate student trying to come up with an equitable exchange. If your interested I'll gladly post some pics.
